MACHINE FOR WINDING BOBBINS.

SFECIFI'CATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 344,681, dated June 29, 1886.

Application filed March 1l, 1886. Serial No. 191.856. (X0 model.) Patented in Germany December 12, 1883, No.. 27,514.

.To all whom it may concern.'

Be it known that LGUIDo Sorrn1nLnn,a citizen ofthe German Empire,residin g at Crefeld, lrussia, in the Germ an Empire, have invented new and useful Improvements in Machines for `Winding Bobbins, (forwbich I have obtained Letters Patent in the German Empire, No. 27,514, bearing date December 12, 1833,) of which the following is a specification.

This invention has for its object to provide novel means for winding yarn or other thread upon bobbins; and it consists in the combina tion of devices hereinafter described and claimed, reference being made to the accom panying drawings, in which- Figure l is a vertical section in the plane .fc x, Fig. 3, of devices embodying my invention, some of the parts being in elevation. Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof in the plane y y, Fig. 3, some of the parts being in elevation. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section in the plane .c e, Fig. l. Fig. 4. is a plan view of modied detail parts.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.

In the drawings,the letter A designates the spool-bearing spindle, to which a rising and falling motion is imparted in the usual manner.

B is the flier, which rotates about the spoolbearing spindle as an axis. Motion is imparted thereto by means of belt, gear, fric tion, or othersuitable connection witha driver. The spindle b of the flier carries at its top a face-plate, @,which serves as a base for toothed posts or racks D D, Fig. 1, which are bolted thereto and steadied by means of a bridge, E, extending across their top ends. A guideboard, F, encom passes these racks D D and penent therefrom are paws G G, Figs. l and 3, which are in proper positions to engage, re` spectively, with the racks so'that the guideboard can have only a rising motion, any retrograde motion thereof being prevented by the engagement of the pawls with the racks. To insure a constant engagement ofthe pawls with the racks, the former may be subjected to the action of springs g g, Fig. 1,which are secured to the guide-board.

The bobbin S may be secured to the spindle A by any suitable means; but, as shown in the drawings, the same is secured thereto by a friction-plate, a, and its axis is held in a straight line by a removable rod, I, which extends downward into a hollow portion of the bobbinbearing spindle, and is guided in the bridge E. A shoulder, I, on this rod I bears upon the top of the bobbin. The .guide-board is provided with means for guiding the thread to the bobbin,which consists of a tube, J, secured to the guide-board by a clamp, j. This tube is movable with the guide-board, as hereinafter explained, and may be laterally adjustable as shown in Fig. 4, such adjustability being effected ,by the use of a yoke, j', which is secured to the guide-board, and a slide, jg, which carries the guide-tube J and can be moved back and forth in its bearings by a screw, j3,'which is socketed to the slide j* and engages a nut in the yoke.

The guide-board, for a reason presentlyto be explained, is provided with a central hole or cavity, F', the diameter of which at its base is nearly equal to the diameter of the bobbin after being filled.

The bobbin S is provided with a conical portion, Z, Fig. 1, at that end nearest the spindle A, and in the use of the machine the free end of the thread is attached to a point on the base line of the cone, and the spindle A is caused to rise and fall through a space equal to the height of this cone after the guideboard F has been brought in its lowest position. As the bobbin falls with the spindle, one layer of thread is wound upon the cone, and in rising the lowest portion of this layer engages the edge of the guide-board and raises the same a trifle, the guide-board being held in its raised position by the pawls G G. The hole or cavity F in the guideboard, it will be observed, is necessary to allow thethread-cone to move upward, so that the lowest portion of the last layer or the top of the cylinder gradually formed by the convolutions of thread may engage the guide-board. As the guideboard is thus successively raised by the contact with the convolutions of the thread the thread-guide is carried therewith, and conse` quently successive outer or final convolutions will be formed, which in turn will raise the guide-board until the bobbin is filled.

It will be observed that only each successive convolution of the proper diameter-that is to IOO say, of a diameterv corresponding to the thickness to which the bobbin is to be filled-operates the guide-board.

|Ihe guide-tube J is adjustable lengthwise through'the guide-board F, and it is held in its adjusted position by any suitable meanssuch, for example as the clamp j, Figs. 1 and 3`which can be loosened by unscrewing its attaching-screws j, to permit the lengthwise adjustment of the tube, after which the screws are tightened to cause the clamp j to securely hold the tube between said clamp and the guide-board. Where the construction shown in Fig. 4 is adopted, the tube can be secured in its lengthwise adjustment by a set-screw,j5, tapped through the tubular slide jz, to bind against the guide-tube. Y

By depressing the guide-tube J the diameter of the winding is increased, and vice versa.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. 'The combination, with a rising` and falling bobbin-bearing spindle, of a rotating ilier, a vertically-movable guide-board carried by the iiier and provided with a conical cavity through which the bobbin passes, and a threadguide on the guide-board, substantially as described.

2. The combination, with a rising and falling bobbin-bearing spindle, a rotating flier provided with an attached vspindle through which the bobbin-bearing spindle passes, and

provided with vertical guide-posts, a verti` cally-movable guide-board arranged on said posts and provided with a conical cavity through which the bobbin passes, means, substantially as described, for preventing a retrograde movement of the guide-board, and a thread-guide on the latter, substantially as described.l

3f rIhe combination, with a rising and falling nonrotating spindle, of a rotating flier, posts on the flier provided with ratchet-teeth, a-guideboard on the posts having a conical cavity, and pendent pawls on the guide-board engaging the ratchet-teeth, substantially as described.

4. The combination, with the rising and falling non-rotating spindle, of the tubular rotary spindle and the plate secured thereto,- thefupright posts having ratchet-teeth, the bridge connecting the upper ends of the posts, the guide-board having a conical cavity, pendent pawls on the guide-board, the rod for holding the bobbin, and means for securing the bobbin to the nonvrotating spindle, substantially as described. 4

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in the presence of two sub` scribing witnesses.
